Canada · Used it 3–6 months
Doesn’t recommendPaid in tokens, can't cash out until you make $20... RUN AWAY!
Got hired suspiciously fast. And there it was: tasks that paid 0.01 per item reviewed. I assumed I'd get a lot of gigs since this company implies that they have NSFW/harmful prompts that need reviewing... but that wasn't the case. It's been 4 months without a single task. And to boot, they send me an email per month telling me to send in my work hours so I can get paid IN TOKENS. NOT REAL MONEY. This has to be a laundering scam, I swear.

Doesn’t recommendNo projects available and low pay rate.
It was not good when this platform was called Appen, but sometimes you got projects that lasted for 2 or 3 months. Now you apply to 10 projects, carefully read their guidelines and complete all their tests, spending at least 40 minutes in each one just to get no positive or negative response. The truth is that this platform is a mess and pays less than its competitors. Don't waste your time here.

Doesn’t recommendTerrible
Used to be that you could find steady projects and work when the company was known as Appen. Since the switch to CrowdGen, there are almost no projects, the qualification process is confusing and you will almost always be rejected, and there is no transparency when it comes to support. They have gone downhill considerably.
